BlastForMass – Gain lean muscle mass. Increase strength. DO YOU BLAST?

This is basically the strength or heavy aspect of the workout. Each workout will contain at least one exercise where you will be trying to go for heavier weight or an increasing weight, to elicit the breakdown of muscle tissue. Blast Training is not to be performed using lighter weight, rather increasing volume while still using a challenging weight!

The burn is the endurance or pump stage where volume training is incorporated. It is immensely important to pump as much blood to the targeted muscle group while training. However, sometimes it just doesn’t happen when lifting heavy. Therefore, I wanted to include an aspect in each workout to ensure a pump is achieved.

Visual Impact Muscle Building

Gaining 20 pounds of muscle is NOT impressive if 15 pounds of that is on your butt, thighs, and waist.

Gaining untargeted muscle is easy and over-rated. The problem with following the standard advice of concentrating on the "big 3" lifts (squat, deadlift, and bench press) is that it will most likely create a terrible looking, bulky physique.

Elliptical Trainers By Stamina – Health Benefits

Stamina has been in the exercise business since the late 1980’s. They have a lot of experience with all types of machines. Elliptical trainers by Stamina offer an excellent way to workout. They also have many advantages over other types of exercise equipment. Here are some reasons that you might want to invest in one.

Entire Body Workout

Many kinds of machines can give you a workout. However, a lot of them will work only certain muscles in the body. A treadmill is very good for the lower body and exercise bikes can work the lower body, too. Some bikes give you a workout by moving the handlebars, but for a full body workout, an elliptical machine may be your best choice.

Low Impact Workout

A low impact workout is very important for many people. This is especially important for older people, and those with joint problems. You also may receive a workout that is easy on the feet and back. A lot of people have issues with back pain and low impact exercise can be very helpful.

A low impact exercise can provide a lot of benefits, to those with joint problems. It can help to increase circulation and lubrication to all of the joints. This can be a big help in alleviating pain from arthritis and other conditions.

Better Variety

Sometimes an exercise routine can be mundane and repetitive. This can often lead to boredom and some people may simply give up. For example, no matter what you do on a treadmill or bike, you are basically doing the same thing over and over. A varied routine can keep exercise interesting and help to eliminate boredom.

Working the Heart

There are a multitude of health benefits associated with cardiovascular exercise. This gives a very important workout for the heart and circulatory system. Cardiovascular work can help to lower cholesterol and decrease the chance for many diseases. A cardio workout that is varied and not boring, can actually be fun to participate in.

Increasing Muscle Mass and Burning Calories

When you exercise on a regular basis, you will increase your total muscle mass. This allows one to eat more calories per day, as muscle needs more calories to function. This same exercise will also burn a great deal of calories. Burning off calories is an excellent way to enhance any weight loss program.

Final Thoughts

Stamina elliptical trainers offer many health benefits. You can burn more calories and add more muscle to your body. They offer an excellent way to receive a good cardio workout, also. The low impact exercise is easy on the joints and back. You can vary the routine to keep your exercise from becoming boring. This may make it easier to keep exercising on a regular basis.

How To Gain Muscle And Burn Bodyfat At The Same Time

by Jon Benson

I remember a friendly argument with my co-author of Fit Over 40 Tom Venuto. It all started when I told Tom how I was eating and training for my last peak. A peak is where you lower your bodyfat and try to maintain as much muscle mass as possible.

“There’s just no way I could ever get in shape eating and training like that,” says Tom. “Sure you could man…what are you, a mutant?” Tom fires back, then me, then Tom….and so it goes. (I really didn’t call Tom a mutant. That was creative liberty.)

So why are so many fitness pros like Tom freaked out about my training and nutrition plan? Simple: I claim it burns fat while building muscle at the same time. Every time I read an article by some doctor or expert claiming it’s “biologically impossible” to gain lean muscle mass on a hypocaloric diet (a diet low in calories) I just laugh.

I do more than make claims–I have proved this to be true many times. I’ve had my bodyfat hydrostatically measured during several peaks. In all but one I showed an increase of muscle mass and a decrease of bodyfat during a 12-16 week period. The one time I didn’t show an increase in muscle mass when was I was training the most in the gym. That may not make sense right now, but it will in a moment.

Bodybuilding Routine That is Right For You

When starting out in your muscle building workouts, you will want to find a good routine fit for you. So what will work best for you? Lets look at ways you can tell if a routine will work and work for you.

First, you want to make sure that whatever routine you might follow, it has gotten results for those that have subscribed to its teachings.

You need a routine that is progressive in its training advice. Meaning, you want to keep progressively overloading your muscles with heavier weight as you get stronger.

Recovering between workouts is something that is very important and should not be pushed aside. Your body needs recovery so it can be ready to lift heavy for the next workout. The routine you are looking at should mention rest as a necessary factor of gaining muscle. Your muscles actually grow when they are resting.

Is the routine right for you specifically? Maybe because of health reasons a routine that is considered high intensity might be too much for you to handle. If you are someone who does not want to go to the max in your training, then high intensity training might not be for you.

Although high intensity training is the fastest way for muscle mass building, you might not be willing to take your mind to the limit and go to failure at each workout. It might be too much stress for you. The good thing though, is that you can go to the gym less often with high intensity training.

There are routines that call for more volume in their training program. These routines have you lifting lighter weights for more sets and reps. Now someone else might find this taxing on them as they have to concentrate for longer periods of time in their training. So find what works best for you, not only physically but mentally.
